hp-plugin uses outdated downloaded files

[Johannes Meixner]

On my SLED11-SP1 32-bit/i586 workstation I run HPLIP 3.12.6 from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Printing/SLE_11_SP1/i586/

I have a HP LaserJet 1020 connected via USB.

When I run hp-plugin for the first time I get:
==============================================
# ls -l /tmp/hplip*plugin*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1845394 Jun 21 00:52 /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 198 Jun 21 00:52 /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run.asc
==============================================

When I run hp-plugin a second time it seems to ignores
the newest downloaded files and uses the older files instead:
==============================================
# hp-plugin -i -g
.
.
.
  Option Description
  ---------- --------------------------------------------------
  d Download plug-in from HP (recomended)
  p Specify a path to the plug-in (advanced)
  q Quit hp-plugin (skip installation)

Enter option (d=download*, p=specify path, q=quit) ? d
.
.

 --verify /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run.asc /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run
==============================================

In particular the last command should be
==============================================
/usr/bin/gpg --no-permission-warning --verify
 /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run.asc.1 /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run.1
==============================================
because I have now those files:
==============================================
# ls -l /tmp/hplip*plugin*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1845394 Jun 21 00:52 /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1845394 Jun 21 00:52 /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 198 Jun 21 00:52 /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run.asc
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 198 Jun 21 00:52 /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run.asc.1
==============================================

I assume that the second hp-plugin run runs /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run
instead of what it had actually downloaded /tmp/hplip-3.12.6-plugin.run.1

I think usually is does not matter (i.e. when the older stuff is valid)
but nevertheless I tink it is a bug when hp-plugin does not to work
with the exact files which it had downloaded in its current run.
